gaming Weird and unexplainable instances in gaming?

[CosmicHooves 2,705]

Has there been any strange, unnatural, and just dowright eerie instances in gaming?

Now I'm not just talking about horror games.

It can be any game.

 

My strange finding is from the game GTA: San Andreas.

Recently I found a great number of abandoned speed ships on the outskirts of Flint County.

I found a staggering 6 abandoned ships.

Here's some pics of my discovery:

No driver whatsoever was found in any of these speed ships.

Strange...

I can't really call them unexplainable, but I do have two examples:

 

While playing Jak 3, one of the hover-cars in Haven City was moving without a driver.

 

When playing "From Russia with Love" on the Playstation 2, while I was in a Soviet checkpoint, a lot of doors and soldiers that were usually present went missing. The outside was completely unloaded, so when I walked outside I died from falling below the map.

In Jack 2 those vehicles, the zoomers or whatever they were called, would spawn randomly outside the of your field of vision. I caused a traffic jam in the slums by hanging off one of the vehicles as well as piling the things on the ground. I had to of had a hundred different zoomers in that cramped little area, which for a ps2 was a lot for it to handle and the frame rate was starting to lag. I pulled out a PeaceMaker and fired while I was in a one of those cracks in the ground. What happened afterward was glorious and I was never able to duplicate it. 

 

First the screen just flipped out, with sound effects of crashing metal and exploding engines, lightning effects from the peacemaker and glowing lights from the chain reaction of zoomers blowing the hell up, and the whole thing culminating in the screen going white and quiet for a split second had my jaw open and a grin on my face as my handy work came into focus. 

 

The game's graphics had been blown to hell, buildings were practically invisible, save for these polygon shapes of textures that would blink on and off of their surfaces, npc's running and screaming and falling through the map to their death, and I'm just waltzing around after basically Nuking reality itself. My mother of course was worried for my poor eyes with all the flickering textures (the world looked like a trippy kaleidoscope of texture maps) that were going on so she made me turn it off, much to my prepubescent dismay.

Yes.

 

I was playing Watch Dogs and this random lady was leaning on nothing but air.

Does the entire game Skate 3 count as a weird experience?

I was once launched really high up into the air for no reason in the mountain stage in the first Sly Cooper game. Scared the s---t out of me.

Goat simulator came out and then I was born, that's a freaky story.

Uh, I can't really think of to much honestly right now.

 

I guess there is the time where I was playing Skyrim, and my horse texture got really messed up...

 

Otherwise I got nothing right now that I can remember ;p.

[CornBreadGang 514]

Yes.

The sad part is that this is true. XP

Probably that weird and explainable moment where in Super Mario Galaxy 2 in like....2 levels, there are these 3 Alien things watching you.

 

Its kinda of eerie, because they just stand there and they have nothing to do with the game or have been mentioned. They are just like stalkers. They don't move and just stand there. I find it creepy when anything in games just watch you and don't do anything.

Well, in gta San Andreas, once all the textures just starting to look strange, not creepy but awkward, also, when I'm playing a game which supports multiplayer, but I'm playing it alone, I swear, soetimes I hear things like if people were talking trough microphones xD

The Heart of Liberty City easter egg in GTA IV. I found it by accident one day and was creeped out. This giant beating heart wrapped in chains inside the Statue of Liberty?

They're called "Hell Valley Sky Trees".

Look them up.

They're supposedly an easter egg in the game.
